Title: Where was Aghagaskie?
Post by: Wuffit on Sunday 26 October 08 20:45 GMT (UK)
I've come across a record for Richardson Keightley on the LDS site.  Can anyone help with the whereabouts of the area?
His birth is registered as 08 DEC 1874   Aghagaskie,  Londonderry, Ireland

Probably Aghagaskin townland in Magherafelt Parish.
See www.thecore.com/seanruad to find information on townlands and parishes in Ireland.

IGI record for Richardson Keightly is a submitted one.

IGI also lists another child of James Keightly & Rebecca McMaster:
Nancy born 24 Feb.1865 Magherafelt dist., Co. Londonderry.

Griffith's Valuation for Aghagaskin lists Richardson Kikly and others with that surname: James Sr., James Jr., Eliza, Anne, William.
